A significant stride towards continued community upliftment supported by USAID and executed by SDPI in collaboration with the government departments and stakeholders was marked by the provincial-level closing seminar here on Tuesday.
The seminar bore a comprehensive agenda, drawing a diverse spectrum of participants. From esteemed provincial seniors primarily from the Health Department and Population Welfare Department to Local Government officials, Social Welfare Department representatives, Civil Society Influencers (CSIs), Youth Ambassadors (YAs), SDPI-trained staff, and community members, the assembly encapsulated a cross-section of stakeholders.
The scope extended even further to encompass additional project contributors within Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, such as CUP, TWO, HDF, GSM, and FRD. Rana Nazir Mehmood, the Project Director of SDPI delivered a comprehensive overview of SDPI’s project activities in Buner, painting a vivid picture of the project’s contributions to the community’s welfare.
Waheed Zafar delved into the project’s progress through a meticulously crafted presentation. His exposition included a presentation of quantitative data showcasing the engagement of various stakeholders. This data encapsulated contributions from CSIs, Lawyers, Local Government entities, educational institutions, and health awareness initiatives. A particularly resonant theme was the elucidation of the project’s sustainability framework, underscoring how these efforts had fortified the resilience of the community’s foundational structure. Umar Farooq enriched the seminar by sharing reflections on the project’s implementation in Buner.—APP
